⭐ THE BEEKEEPER OF ALEPPO – WORLD PREMIERE STAGE ADAPTATION ANNOUNCED ⭐
The world premiere stage adaptation of the critically-acclaimed novel The Beekeeper of Aleppo has been announced.
Christy Lefteri’s best-selling novel will have its world premiere in a brand new adaptation by Nesrin Alrefaai and Matthew Spangler (The Kite Runner).
Nuri is a beekeeper; his wife, Afra, an artist. They live a simple life, rich in family and friends, in the beautiful Syrian city of Aleppo – until the unthinkable happens. When all they care for is destroyed by war, they are forced to escape. On their terrifying journey, they must face the pain of their own unbearable loss alongside incredible danger. Above all, they must journey to find each other again. This compassionate and beautiful play is a story of connection – between friends, families and strangers.
Winner of the Aspen Words Award, Runner up for the Dayton Literary Peace Prize, and one of The Times top three bestselling books of 2020.
The production will be directed by Olivier Award winning Miranda Cromwell (Death of a Salesman – Young Vic, Piccadilly Theatre and opening on Broadway in September).
Co-produced by Nottingham Playhouse with Liverpool Everyman and Playhouse and UK Productions Ltd.
The Beekeeper of Aleppo will play Nottingham Playhouse, running from 3rd – 25th February 2023 and Liverpool Playhouse, running from 1st – 11th March 2023.
